saturday NAT live! {michigan bat mitzvah photography}

SO excited to share some of these fab photos from Natalie’s Bat Mitzvah last month.  We shoot a lot of amazing parties, but this one was really out of this world!  So much care and thought went into all the beautiful details, and it was just amazing how everything came together.

A couple of months before the big day Natalie came by the studio for a lifestyle shoot, to capture some fun images that would later be incorporated into her party theme.  She wanted some portraits in the style of the famous Mary Ellen Matthews SNL photos – no pressure, right?!  Anyhow, I was so pleased with how they came out and really proud of the final series.  Here’s a handful of my favorites:
